Ronald Charles Damon

Ron and I were teammates in Army Special Forces. I was young when I got to the team and I looked up to him and learned much from him. Great times that I will always remember and often reflect on. RIP Ron. Great man.

Mark and family,
I just heard of Rons passing. Please accept our condolences. Ron was a great man...larger than life!

Ron was on my Team at the 11th group (113). He was as good a man as I ever knew and far braver than most. I and all who knew him respected him greatly and will miss his example a great deal. My condolences and deepest sympathies to his family. Kevin Paicos

Dear Pat,
I am so sorry for your loss. You know how much you both meant to me. Ron will long be remembered in my heart. Send my best to Mark too.
Ginormous HUGS,

Very sorry to learn of Ron's passing. Ron always treated me kindly. We go back to my younger days and through years of military service. He always took the time to really talk with me. I will miss Ron. Please accept my condolences. Rest in Peace Ron. DOL.

Ronnie, you are considered by my father to be one of his closest friends in life and one of the best police officers another officer could have worked with and for in a career. Growing up I heard many of your epic stories as you told them and have heard my father proudly repeat many of them to others over the years. I am only half your age but because of your friendship with my father in some ways I feel like I know you as much as the next guy does. To Ronnie's family, I am sorry for your loss! Ronnie was larger than life but real and will remain that way in death to his closest friends and those such as myself who have had the privilege of knowing him. He made an impression on my life from an early young age. As a young boy he gave me pointers on swimming and then threw me into the deepest parts of the water on the beach to get me to swim. This was his way to get me to see that I could do it. Ronnie was also a very compassionate man and concerned for others as I experienced firsthand only a few short years ago when I was injured in training and out of work for a while with significant pain. Ronnie, hearing of my condition, came to see me at my house on his own and by himself. We talked for a couple of hours and his compassion for others was evident. I could see on his face that he knew I was really hurting. What I don't know is if he could see past the pain on my face to see how much his visit meant to me. I will never forget Ronnie. He is every bit the human being described by others. Rest in Peace!

Ron Damon was not only my shift commander but a very good friend. We worked together for 25years, and after retirement continued to be best friends. I remember going on many calls with Ron and he always had the right words to calm the situation down. Ron was someone you wanted with you on a bad call. Ron was a great man and a great police officer. He was stern when he had to be, but compassionate. There will never be another like him. I will never forget Ronnie Damon my very good friend, I will miss you.

Your contagious smile, warmth and energy will be remembered at the front desk, and in the back corner of World Gym - back in our day!

My condolences Ron was the Epitome of the Quiet Professional in all he did. R.I.P.

Nothing but fond memories. Ron was more than a father in law to me ... he was a second father. Was a pleasure training & competing in power lifting with him & Pat as well as talking military history with him. He took me rock climbing, scuba diving and other activities I would never have accomplished without him. Every couple of years he would take me to Virginia to his Navy Seal reunions. Stayed with another outstanding man Glenn & his wife Faye. He also liked taking my daughter Sarah swimming & always liked coming up to my home were his daughter Kellie (my wife) would always make him feel at home, which he always did. He will never be replaced & was a remarkable man with a generous loving heart. I love you very much Ron, rest in peace.

Godspeed, Ron. Our sincere condolences to Mark, Deb and the whole family

Diana, I am so sorry for the loss of your brother. You and your family will be in my thoughts.

Pat and Mark sorry for your loss of a great man. Knowing Ron and your family started at USM gym and continued to many more in the area.
Remember telling Ron, I wanted to be a police officer. Ron questioning, why the hell do you want to do that? After becoming a Westbrook Police Officer, Ron was supportive of my career. Ron always took time to talk and tell a story or two.

Mark,

My condolences on the loss of your Dad. I have great memories of him during my college days working out at the USM Gym.

An old school cop that was respected by many during his career. I can truly say that he was one of the very few that inspired me to be a brother in blue. You will be missed but never forgotten.

Sincere condolences to the family . Thanks to Ronnie for being upstanding and fair in his service. One of the best , RIP old buddy

Kellie and Casey, So very sorry to hear of your loss. Keeping you and your families in my thoughts and prayers. Sally (Harley) Leavitt

YOU WILL ALL BE IN OUR PRAYERS,THOUGHTS AND BE SURE TO TAKE CARE OF ONE ANOTHER.

I remember Ron growing up and he was a SO. Portland Police Officer. We need today, more men such as this who was a great police officer and showed compassion to all who he met. He helped me when I had a paper route and it was a very stormy day in January. He helped me finish my route that morning and gave me a ride home. Saddened to hear of his passing. Just know Heaven has a great person/cop up there and he will continue to serve in that capacity.

Ronnie was a Great guy and I really looked up to him all my life - very sad! I became a commercial and recreational deep sea diver because of him. One of the most exciting things I have ever done in my life, and still count it as my most joyful activity. Please give my condolences to Mark, Melanie and others in his family. He will be missed, a larger than life kind of guy. I have so many memories of his personality and antics, a Real Man's Man with a heart of gold and a fearless nature. There will be no replacement for Ronnie Damon! Although, his son Mark may be able to pick up the ball.

Ronnie was a mentor and a friend. He lived with no regrets, and left us with no regrets. Most importantly...he truly lived. He will be missed, but his memory will live on.

condolences to Ron's family, he was a really good man and I am proud to have been a friend

To Pat, Mark, family, and legions of Ron's friends....
My deepest, heart-felt condolences, and prayers.
I'm proud to have called Ron my friend.
And he was a true hero.
My thoughts and prayers.
